X = first integer, y = second integer (right after x)
since y is right after x, we can say
y = x+1
If the product of the two integers (x and y) is 42, then
x*y = 42
x*( y ) = 42
x*( x+1 ) = 42 ... y is replaced with x+1
x*x + x*1 = 42
x^2 + x = 42
x^2 + x - 42 = 0
(x + 7)(x - 6) = 0 ... factor
x + 7 = 0 or x - 6 = 0
x = -7 or x = 6
The result must be positive as the problem states it, so we toss out x = -7
The only answer is x = 6
If x = 6, then
y = x+1
y = 6+1
y = 7
The two consecutive numbers are 6 and 7
The final answer is 6
Sure enough, 6*7 = 42 checks out
2 bags, because when you add 5/8 and 1 3/8 you get 1 8/8 which is really 2
Turn 5% into a decimal which is 0.05, then multiply by 2.95 = 0.1475
round it off, which is 0.15
so $0.15 is the tax and if ur looking for the total price then add $2.95 to $0.15
